Default Non-Owners insurance- Worthless?

The word 'lease' might be misunderstood here. It refers
to the owner; he/she is forbidden to let an experimental
aircraft out for hire. The pilot/renter is probably
also in trouble.

I subsequently rented a glider after presenting proof

Avemco, and was told that they had contacted Avemco

aircraft were not covered. My limited understanding
is that many
gliders in the rental pool fall into the experimental
category, perhaps
up to half. I guess you can't tell by type of glider
either, as it
depends on how they were imported, equipment, etc.
(my knowledge is
obviously sketchy here..)

Under what conditions can you rent an experimental
glider? Doesn'=

t 91.319
prohibit that?


How so? A pilot renting a glider is not 'Carrying
persons or property
for compensation or hire.'
